The time of day you like best tells a lot about your personality, a famed psychologist says.

The time of day you like best tells a lot about your personality, a famed psychologist says.

“The time you feel most alive and in tune with yourself is closely related to your own inner clockwork,” says Dr. Elayne Kahn.

Here’s the kind of personality you have according to your favorite time of day:

DAWN
If you like the earliest part of the day you’re an optimist and like to be one step ahead of the crowd. You eagerly greet each day with exuberance and always radiate health and good humor. You can’t wait to get on with your work.

MORNING
You are very orderly. Your life is fully organized and by the time you get to work, you know exactly what you’re going to do and how much time you have to do it.

NOON
YOu’re warmhearted with a soft spot for people. You enjoy good conversation.

AFTERNOON
You tend to start slowly, but once your engine starts running, you can’t be stopped. You have an enormous energy supply.

SUNSET
You love the fellowship of friends and the warm closeness you feel with your family. The important thing for you is to be able to unwind and loosen up.

EVENING
You keep up with the best in TV, movies and websites. You are stylish, well-informed and a virtual encyclopedia on pop culture. Friends often look to you to recall the name of an old movie or actor.

MIDNIGHT
When others are fast asleep, you come alive. You’re not bound by tradition or authority and you’re very self-assured. YOu’re spirited, witty, somewhat out of “sync” with the rest of the world.

WEE SMALL HOURS
You’re a seeker with a restless mind. You enjoy mystery and intrigue and you need a lot of time to yourself. You have a well-developed sense of right and wrong, and the plight of the underdog always tugs at your heart.
